    Existing Shower Pump to include tap hot water - Is this adaptation OK?

    Thanks for all your advice, I emailed Stuart Turner direct and pleasantly surprised by response: So with that confirmed I am hoping my plan works!

    Existing Shower Pump to include tap hot water - Is this adaptation OK?

    Surely if a pump is whole house then it's designed for when people just run the hot or just the cold? Or am I misunderstanding whole house function? i.e. is it whole house showers only.

    Existing Shower Pump to include tap hot water - Is this adaptation OK?

    As an alternative, are those inline pumps suitable for running 2 taps? my worry with a another single impeller pump is that it will be fed from the aerated part of the warwick flange.

    Existing Shower Pump to include tap hot water - Is this adaptation OK?

    Thanks for that advice guys, I hadn't considered the impact of only running one side as I thought most people pressurise the who house with these. I have a 3.0 Stuart Turner S3.0 bar Twin which I assume isn't 'whole house'? Couldn't really find anything related to this in manual.

    Existing Shower Pump to include tap hot water - Is this adaptation OK?

    Hi All, Current system is a gravity fed hot water cylinder which I fitted with a Warwick flange that feeds into my 2 way shower pump, works great. This then pumps the hot water along with cold water from cistern up to the attic and along to shower. This is a bungalow and only has 2 hot water...

    Carport / Canopy Side Cladding

    Thanks for all the tips so far. Although the canopy is shielded somewhat from wind and rain by property next door I have taken the advice to not fully clad the side in case it causes issues when strong winds. I was somewhat suppressed by how much more corroded the side of the van was that is...

    Carport / Canopy Side Cladding

    I think it's the wind that's driving the rain in currently. I considered spaces between the clads but most systems I've seen are shiplap. What would you suggest? Thanks

    Carport / Canopy Side Cladding

    There are vertical supporting legs but spaced 3m apart. I was wondering if there is a cladding that would have enough rigidity to be OK with that.

    Carport / Canopy Side Cladding

    Hi all, I have a carport canopy at the side of my bungalow that has been a great cover for my campervan the past 5 years. Unfortunately the wind carries rain into the side and is causing some rust issues so I would like to clad this with something affordable, preferably white PVC but open...

    Storm sill / Door Seal - 70's Front Door

    Many thank very helpful, I hadn't considered a cord type seal. Does the V shaped seal go on the surround of door itself? Considering installing both to create a good seal.

    Storm sill / Door Seal - 70's Front Door

    Hi Everyone, I am in the process of renovating my hall / porch area in a 70's bungalow. It looks like the previous owner added some foam strips to the wood to make a better seal which has perished. I could replace with simple foam / rubber strips but notice there is a rounded recess around the...

    Wall Plaster Repair - Mortar OK for base?

    I have had to reopen an air vent that was bricked up by previous owner and it has damaged some of the surrounding plaster. I will build a wooden frame which will be almost flush with the face which the grill can screw into like on the opposite side. I am looking at how best to replaster the...

    Earth touching Neutral somwhere

    Not sure I just had a message relayed from wife saying they could sign off the work due to this fault showing. No idea if it is due to recent bathroom work they wired or something wider in the home. I was hoping I could at least have a go at trying to find the fault in the rest of the home...

    Earth touching Neutral somwhere

    Sorry yes, it is a Earth shorted to Neutral somewhere. I was wondering if any of those outlet testers might be worth buying and trying to locate it.

    Earth touching Neutral somwhere

    Just had some bathroom electrics completed by electricians and while conducting the signing off testing they say there is a Ground shorted to Neutral somewhere in the home wiring. (wife relayed message to me so that's all I know). Only a small bungalow but wondered if anyone can recommend a way...
